THE COUNTS.
POLICE COURT.

c. N. Wilke, G. W. Davis and c. E. Bar
Der were three Old time Migrants, mot the kind
that have recently figured in the police court
but genuine arrivals from Vagville. They
were all committed.
Hugh O'Rourick was the only drunk
Cora Howard and her friend Susie Smith
remembered his honor with $40 each. Jen
ME Smith and three girls, and Mollie Jones
ard two girls were also up to call on bis
honor
The trial of Simon Smith and jeff Sublet
the two colored men alleged to have been
implicated in the North Main street rio,
commenced in the forenoon, continued dur.
ing the day and was not even then complet-
ed. The room was crowded with spectators
friends and witnesses. The evidence was OF
an interesting character, many witnesses
giving damaging testimony for the two pris
oners. The cornice men injured in the row
were able to appear in the court room a:
witnesses, but still bear the marks of the
conflict.

BUSTED BOON.

To The Editor OF The Eagle.
In Yesterdays issue read with considera-
BILE amusement the rticle headed 1.-The Boom
Begun" Quincy papers have for some time
been trying o impress upon the people of that
city the fact that "Wichitas boom had
busted and everything in the way of pros
perity had entirely vanished never to return
to the doomed city again. But for the bene-
fit of the people OF that city and of Others
who are regarding us in the same manner,
whether from hearsay or from their envy OF
our prosperity, | want to state that each day
for the last three months Sundays excepted,
have taken larger contracts than the one of
which that city boasts so proudly. Could the
author of that short article visit our growing
city he would at once appreciate the
difference between boom" and boast.
When forty years Of storm and sunshine have
pas ed, our buildings will not have to be torn
down because of decay. Yes, we are build
ing a city as grand as any west of the Miss
issippi river. My own contracts for the year
will amount to round half million, and
there are a dozen contractors here who can
show figures equal to this and back them by
solid facts. We can refer them to a number
of buildings now completed and in course OF
construction that cost large sums Of money;
much as the Rouse & Blackwelder business
building, which is to cost 1920, GOO; opera
house, s10O,OO Carey hotel, $500, 600; Davis
g. Hartzell business block, 5000, 900;
Martinson bank building, 500, COO;
r. B. Lawrence business block, 100000;
Richland block $50, 600, and had We time and
space we could mention fifty buildings cost
ing from s25, 900 to $4,000 each, besides our
college, car works, watch factory, boot and
shoe factory, horse collar factory, motor
lines, packing houses, and many others that
will follow Besides these we can boast Of
600 new residences These are not fancies,
but solid adamantine facts, and if our neigh
bors of the Mississippi valley don't believe it
let them come out and see for themselves.
Respectfully, B. d. DOWNING,
Contractor and Ruildar

TWO PROMINENT GENTS SHOT AT.

Two prominent society gentlemen while
out riding few evenings ago spied water
melon patch. They had not discussed the
scheme of hooking" a melon very long,
until one of them started to do the task
While he was sizing up the fruit man ap-
peared from behind some weeds 1 OF far
away, and informed the young man that the
melons were not raised for that purpose.
The young lad continued his search, and at
last finding one that suited his eye picked it
up and started for his carriage. He was
called upon to halt several times, but soon
reached the carriage. AS they were driving
away the guard emptied a double barreled
shotgun at them. Following the explosion
one of the fellows threw up his arm and
exclaimed, my God, I'm shit" The other
piled the whip to the horse and they were
soon out of danger. A shot bit the fellow on
the shoulder-blade and it was but a small
task for the doctor to remove it. Another
shot hit the horse in the fore leg and 1t was
also removed, and the animal VIII suffer no
lasting damage.
An attempt has been made to keep the
matter quiet, but it has leaked out all the
same and that fact is being proved to the
melon boys by an accidental smile from pas
sers-by.

Ae1aANrIc sw1NDLK.

Yesterday gentleman well known in the
city, but who wishes his name not be used at
present in this connection gave the following
particulars of what he cons idered one Of the
largest swindles.. attempted here for some
time The men who have been attempting
to work the scheme, he states, are still In the
city waiting for victims.
tSome four weeks ago" he says, "a gentle
man of this city interested in some land In
Missouri, was approached by real estate
dealer in this city and offered mortgages on
some resi- estate situated in Roscommon
county, Michigan, in exchange for said Mis-
souri, land The mortgages were represented
as having been given for one-half the pur-
chase price of the land ard the abstracts.
deeds, mortgages, notes, ETC., all looked well
But the reckless manner in which said mort
cages were handled, together with the eager
ness to trade, excited the suspicion of the
owner of the Missouri land. Being an old
banker, he soon succeeded, by liberal use OF
the telegraph and mails, in unearthing the
whole scheme most beautifully.
sThe modus operandi," he says,
is about as follows: Four or five men are IN
the scheme. The land is worthless stump
land, covered with sand, has an occasional
lumber camp, with no roof thereon) and is
bought at twenty-five cts per acre. The pur-
chaser then sci to friend for $50 per acre
and takes back a mortgage on said land for
one-haf the purchase price, that is $50 per
acre. Two sections Of land in Roscommon
county, Michigan, have been sold in this way
and most of the mortgages on said land were
three weeks ago held by one or two men OF
this city who are doing everything in their
power to trade the mortgage for good prop
erty here in Kansas. At least one trade has
already been consun mated and it is for the
purpose of protecting the honest people OF
this city that say what do. The whole
business is stupendous swindle and people
ought to be put on their guard"
Wichita eagle., 1887-08-07
ANOTHER MANUFACTURES.

S. s. Williams, agent for Clsrks patent lu-
bricators, valves ard other brass goods has
been in the city for some days for the purpose
of making srrangt mentf to start manufact-
ure for making the goods in this city. Some
days ago he introduced the matter TO the
committe on manufactures and after pro-
longed investigation il has been decided to
recommend the enterprise to the board of
trade
There are quite number Of similar plants
in eastern cities, but none west of Cincinnati.
Mr.. Clark's patents are now being used by
all the railroads of the country and used also
extensively by ali manufacturers Of station
airy engines. Seven years Of
his life he spent working on
inventions for the Santa Fe company. and
after getting up number OF inventions in
troduced them to eastern cites where manu-
facturers were started
1t is desired TO form company strong
enough to start plant OF sufficient capacity
TO employ one hundred and fifty men- The
large territory that can be supplied from
this point has created the belief thst ere
long even greater number Of men would be
given employment. The demand Of the
goods in the east makes it reasonably certain
that orders TO plant here would be nuuer-
Gus.
Work On raising stock for the enterprise
viii commence in a few days.

sw1cH1rA STREET RAILWAY CO.
BetterinR Of Service-Extensions Under Con
temptation,

The Wichita Street Railway company are
Third street. A fifteen minute service on
Fourth avenue from the corner Of Main
street and Douglas avenue to the Union de-
pot will be given, commencing today. The
arrival of some more cars from st. Louis has
enabled the company to better the service on
that line.
The company has been requested to give q
twenty minutes service to the cemetery by q
number of citizens. In response to the re.
quest it has been decided to grant it, the car
running from the corner of Main and Doug
las.
Between the hours Of 10 O'Clock a. m. and
g p. M, Sundays, the company
will give College Hill a
fifteen minute service. This is
dor for the purpose of increasing the facili-
ties to go TO church.
The double track on Main street from Thir-
tenth street to Douglas avenue has been
completed. On both sides Of each rail is a
heavy oak board which is near the top OF the
rail- Between the tracks and between the
rails and on the outside for two feet it is
macadamized, bringing the surface near the
top of the rail This enables wagons and CARR
ages to go over the track with little or no
difficulty, which is considered quite com
mendable feature for street used as much
as Main street. Although the st" rail is
used, it is put down in such q manner as to
make it as little offer sive as any other.
AS soon as the weather gets little more
respectable work will be commenced on
the construction of double track on Douglas
from Main to Mead avenue. 1t was difficult
to find men who were able to work during
the last few weeks on Main street. 1t has
been decided to not commence work on
Douglas until change.
The Linwood Park line will be completed
by the last of this week. By the time tina!
extension is completed the cars will arrive
They will be painted yellow.
+ The company have a number of other ex-
tensions under contemplation and will com
mence work on the same in few weeks.
